My guess is as well that dithering 10bit to 8bit will be a waste. MPEG-2 is an 8-bit codec. As I said in the article, 8-bit color is more than adequate for a number of shooting scenarios. If you need 10bit (or greater) color sampling, then you simply need a different codec (read here, different device). Each tool has its place. nanoFlash works perfectly for me.

Exactly. No software application or piece of hardware is optimized for every possible scenario.

The XDR Works well for me
....The XDR works perfectly for me as well.....But it could work even more perfectly if I had the *U* option for digital cinema origination. (Doing my best not to thread camp on that one Chris)

I do think it has more value when up-rezing than when down-rezing, so you may be right.
